You can rewrite text in any app on your Android phone with AI that never leaves it. Off Grid AI Pro adds Improve to Android’s text selection menu: select text in Chrome, Gmail or any app, tap Improve, and a model on your phone writes a better version that goes straight back in place.

No copy and paste between apps, and nothing sent to a server.

What you need

  • Off Grid AI 0.0.124 or later on your Android phone, from the download page.
  • Off Grid AI Pro. Enter your licence key in the app and tap Activate. Pro is $34.99 once, a limited-time price down from $119, or $7.99 a month, for up to 5 devices.
  • A text model, downloaded in Models. Improve uses it to write your new versions.

Step 1: Select text and tap Improve

  1. In any app, select the text you want to change.
  2. In the menu that pops up, open the extra options, usually the three dots.
  3. Tap Improve.
Android's text selection menu with Share, Replace, Read aloud, Copy to Off Grid AI and Improve, over selected text.

Step 2: Pick a version

The Improve screen opens with your text at the top.

  1. The quick fix comes first, with how many mistakes it fixed, such as “1 fixed”.
  2. Your model then writes a better version, on your phone.
  3. Choose under Change: Improve, Clearer, Shorter, Longer, Fix grammar or Persuasive.
  4. Choose a Tone if you like: Formal, Casual, Friendly or Confident.
  5. Tap Another version for a fresh take.

If your model is slow for this, Improve suggests a quicker one you can get in one tap.

Step 3: Replace

Tap the version you want, then Replace. Off Grid AI closes and your new text sits where your selection was, in Chrome, in a reply, in a form.

Where the app doesn’t let you edit the text, the button reads Copy instead. Tap it and paste where you need it.

Fix spelling as you type

Inside Off Grid AI, Scribe underlines spelling and grammar as you type a message. Put the cursor on an underlined word and a bar above the keyboard offers up to three fixes. Tap one to take it, the book to add the word to your dictionary, or the × to ignore it. That works without a model.

Select text in the chat box and the bar offers Improve too.

What stays on your phone

Checks and rewrites run on your phone with the model you downloaded. If you pair it with Off Grid AI Desktop, the words Scribe has learned sync between them over your own network.
